There are two stokes for the harAers, the jfliiwmifr I and the National Maiden.. . .Nate Glad- stone, a member of secretary John Turners staff, left for Cleveland to attend the • funeral of his aunt, Mrs. Sarah Yoselo-vitz, 82, who died yesterday. Gladstone and five brothers and sisters were raised by Mrs. Yoselovitz after their mother died. Nate will be back at his job here Saturday. Sam Lewin, manager of the Carolyn K Stable, who is more familiarly known as "The Genuis," came up with a good one in the stables Bit o Whiz yesterday, which paid 3.20. Sam, the Memphis Engleberg of New Jersey, is a top -flight handicapper and his figures are sought by many a horse player, but a lot of them wouldnt take his rating on Bit o Whiz, much to their regret. Lewin, who deserted a law career for action on the turf, has built the Carolyn K Stable into one of the top outfits onthe circuit and his claims of horses like Hi Billee and The Eagle, both of whom earned plenty of checks, were a few of his most recent astute moves. His fame has even spread to England, where turf writer Clive Graham, who met him at Laurel last year for the International, mentions him in his English ratine eotuwn.
